One, that book is filled with BS ( https://www.theverge.com/2023/10/1/23895069/walter-isaacson-... ). Second, I don't care if Elon had a tough childhood or is autistic or is high on ketamin all the ti

Well, funnily enough rand() isn’t all that random, but that’s beyond the point. I don’t think randomness is a good argument for free will, that’s just nature. Does a flipping coin have free will? An electron before it decoheres?

Nope, there is randomness. Similarly I can run a rand() function. But is that free will?

So reviewing this more closely. This is a joke. What is reliability? I would say, that the car starts in the morning, that it gets you from point A to B, that it isn't in the shop. But that only appears to be half the equation here. Wh

As a Tesla owner I was surprised they're that low. I know probably 30 owners and haven't heard of any maintenance outside of tires and a few panel gaps at delivery.

I don't think so. You're using two low load, low power systems combined. The least reliable ICE systems almost always correlate to the more powerful ones.

Ya, I mistyped. I meant "doesn't." Not being predictable =/= free will. It just means there's some randomness.

I definitely lack the words to be super eloquent on this front, but I boil it down to a computer comparison. No matter how complex a computer we make it will take inputs and compute outputs. I now of no evidence of a level of complexity at

My company is forcing a one day a week RTO (badge scan requirement). I have been firm with them. My day will not be any longer and travel time is coming out of it. At home I get on at 8am and sign off at 5pm. So on my RTO day I leave home a

Exactly. Tell me what free will is? If it's a soul, god, etc... fine, no need to debate, I don't need to be that atheist. If it's not any of that, then why do you think the brain is the only physical object which doesn't

Not at all. What do you think free will is? Unless you think there is something beyond the physical world, the belief in free will makes absolutely no sense.

Stating there is no free will does mean we can predict everything you'll do. The only way to simulate the universe is to produce another universe and even then the reality of quantum physics is that future states have randomness not pe

I actually fully agree with this, no one should have to do these jobs for shitty pay. Just relating the reality though, the reason fast food and produce has been so cheap is because of underpaid immigrant labor.

It’s super light, about the same weight as single wall stainless cup. The mouthfeel is nice, hot coffee doesn’t make the titanium feel as hot as steel gets and the feel is more similar to ceramic than stainless steel. It cleans up really ni

The worst thing I saw in residency was a case of a 32 year old father of three who came presented with spontaneous pneumothorax. Chest tube was placed and he was admitted, usually no big deal. Next morning the incision was slightly inflamed

Love titanium, something so cool about it. It’s like steel with no downsides. I’ve got 5 ti bikes and a few ti watches, one of my favorite pieces though is my snow peak double wall titanium mug.
